Friendsgiving

A Celebration of Gratitude, Friendship, and Community

This Thanksgiving season, Play-Place Autism & Special Needs Center is honored to share the warmth of the holidays through our annual Friendsgiving Feast — providing free traditional Thanksgiving dinner packages for families affected by autism and other special needs.

We know that holidays can be both joyful and challenging. That’s why this program is designed to lift a little weight off your shoulders and fill your home with comfort, connection, and care.

🦃 What’s Included

Each Friendsgiving Feast package (5 member household) includes all the traditional Thanksgiving favorites — a hearty turkey, sides, and sweet treats — provided with love and ready to enjoy together as a family.

We believe that every family deserves a seat at the table filled with gratitude and good food.

💛 Who Can Sign Up

The Friendsgiving Feast is open to families of children, teens, and adults with autism or other special needs who may benefit from a helping hand this holiday season.
